I'll retry here... Reply #3 – February 21, 2007, 10:18:57 PM I'll have to dig out my extras. It's not just a simple piece of angle iron.It is a BEEFY "C"-shaped piece of 3/16" steel. It takes alot to bend them. They are made as they are to protect the fog light from damage from below I imagine.Basically they bolt to the bumper at the top and there is a stud on the back of the light housing that then bolts to the back of the bracket. You'll need to modify your bumper as the TC ones had cutouts for the C-nuts. Quote Selected

You'll need to modify your bumper as the TC ones had cutouts for the C-nuts.I beleived it was not just a flatbar, 3/16" thich on the road with around 5" long will vibrate a lot, I guess is a kind of angle torsionned to bolt on the bumper frame and behind the fog light 5/16 nut...If You found, please send Me a pic, otherwise I'll made a kind of "antivibrating" bracket...IF I receive My TC bumper purchased on ebay, paid the 02 Feb, and the seller say still not received?????, But I have some issue with the mail this time.Anyway, If I never receive the TC bumper and lost My $$$ I'll not make a crisis, but I'll cut My bumper cover and mold like the stock one, it's a pain and long, but I have the tools to work this neoprene/rubber...Thanks for Your help...Have a nice Day,Dom.
